The product description for Japanese Dreasm, via Amazon:

Contributions by such well-known fantasy authors as Steve Berman, Eugie Foster, Jay Lake, Yoon Ha Lee, Robert Joseph Levy, Lisa Manchev, Ricgard Parks, Ekateria Sedia, Erzebet TeloowBoy and more, all offer us a glimpse of a silken sleeve or the red fur of the fox as she slips between the rushes, daring us to follow.


The complete lack of any actual Japanese authors is ... um ... yeah. Especially with the Orientalist language about silken sleeves and the red fox.
